In researching examples of the Church aligning with political power, I found numerous disturbing examples of what this looks like. This is the story of Revelation 13 - the political leader (the Antichrist) allying with the religious world (the False Prophet). This chapter serves as a cautionary tale, particularly from the Amillennial perspective. The alliance spoken of in Revelation between religion and government isn’t about when religious people get involved in government… it is when the Government BECOMES the religion.
